I’d like my son to follow my trade: Saudi executioner

TEHRAN, March 16 (MNA) – A Saudi executioner is entrusted with the task of training his 22 years old son as an executioner.

Muhammad Saad al-Beshi who was talking to Saudi newspaper ‘Okaz’ referred to training his son which focuses on the ways to hold the sword and where to hit, and said proudly: "I successfully trained my son Musaed, 22, as an executioner and he was approved and chosen."

Muhammad Saad al-Beshi, Saudi executioner who is one of the executioners with sword in Saudi Arabia believes that changing nature of the death penalty by sword to firing squad will not make him unemployed.

According to MNA, Muhammad Saad al-Beshi, who is one of the executioners with sword around Mecca emphasized that he has practiced to use firearms from long time ago, and he has done execution with firing squad as well!

Beshi added: “of course execution with sword is still preformed, and I recently executed a man by sword in Rnieh Provence.

Beshi said: “I insisted that my child learn the job well, because while religious scholars and missionaries (Wahhabi sect leaders), always insist that execution and enforcement of Islamic Sharia law is necessary, but, not many people would like to do this job.”
